Yes....but I think Tyler has a few other things on his plate at the moment. Last I heard (saw in pics) it's still at Ironworks though!

We have gotten a few things done to try and get it off the chassis jig and made to roll. It is really close for that, but no where near done.
It would be great to free up some shop space.

The black daily driven 68 (aka Chicane-LM) has been sold. 50/50 will once again move forward at Ironworks. I can't stress enough how important it is to work with the right shop. Rodger was beyond understanding, professional, and accommodating while I figured out what to do with a stalled out project. I hear all the time people saying how they can't afford high end shops like Ironworks; I'll tell you first hand you can't afford NOT to go to a shop of this caliber. How many re-do's have I had to do between the chassis shop and body kit? Two and three respectively, and after being burned over and over on this obsession I learned what makes a good shop.

Tune in as we crack open the vault that stores the 5-time-world-champion-of-stalled-projects, eleven-years-and-counting-in-the-making, lighter-weight-than-ever-before, 1968 Camaro known as 50/50.

So the project is moving forward again, Congrats!!

Hopefully you sold the other car for a 6 figure sum so you can finish 50/50.
$40k gets swallowed up fast with these types of projects.

Well it is not in motion yet... it is still locked in it's lovely desert condo of steel. But we have to finish something to get another project inside. I have more employees then ever and we have a bunch of projects going on. Along with all the current work, it seems all the stall projects are all wanting to start up again......

I guess my problems could be worse......
